There's a new Brooklyn Tweed Wool People collection out, and it features one of my samples.

Little Wave is a saddle-shoulder cabled cardigan designed by Gudrun Johnston. I knit the men's version, modeled here by none other than the dashing Jared Flood (he's a lovely person in real life too). It's knit in Shelter in the cast iron colourway.

This is such an interesting and entertaining knit! I would say it requires intermediate skill to make, as there are a lot of technical details that come together simultaneously to make a beautifully shaped piece.

I'm in love with the women's version in that beautiful embers colourway.

Be sure to check out the collection. It's chock-a-block with handsome pieces. Lots here to warm a knitter's heart. My fingers are itching to cast-on for this beauty from Leila Raabe:

It would have been the perfect thing to keep my ears warm on this morning's run (it was cooooold, around -10 C, that's 14 degrees F)!

Speaking of heart-warming, thank you for all the warm comments you've left on my last few posts. It's been nice to be back here and in touch with all of you.

A Little Wave is on my list of must have to knit soon! Actually I was going to ask my husband to buy me the yarn for my Christmas present this year. I couldn't even imagine the excitement I'd get by seeing Jared wearing something I knit! Swoon.
